Materials Data on Zr2Si by Materials Project
Zr2Si is Khatyrkite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zr2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Si4- atoms. All Zr–Si bond lengths are 2.83 Å. Si4- is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Zr2+ and two equivalent Si4- atoms. Both Si–Si bond lengths are 2.67 Å.
